On the Possibility of a New Elite

This article was posted in early 2025 but seems to have disappeared from TOO. This is the version from The Occidental Quarterly with a few edits to bring it up to date.

I am perhaps best known for documenting a hostile, highly influential Jewish elite in the U.S. and really throughout the West. But I think things are changing in a good direction, with some important exceptions.

Jews ascended to the heights of American society in several stages. In the early twentieth century they were important enough to get Henry Ford’s attention. Ford noted their prominence in a variety of fields and their hostility to Christianity—see my discussion of Henry Ford’s The International Jew published from 1920 to 1922.^[1] Jews also had prominent roles in FDR’s administrations,^[2] but it wasn’t until after World War II that anti-Jewish attitudes basically disappeared and they really entered the mainstream. Jews then led the 1960s counter-cultural revolution and became a dominant elite in the 1960s, deeply involved in the passage of the 1965 immigration law that eventually radically transformed the country, as well as civil rights legislation and the general ascent of the left to a position of dominance in American culture.^[3] Jewish ascendency was accompanied by the decline and eventual eclipse of the previously dominant WASP east-coast establishment.^[4]

The main sources of Jewish power since the 1960s have been: 1.) their ownership of media and their creation of media content as writers and producers; 2) their wealth and willingness to contribute to political causes—funding political candidates and establishing nonprofit organizations and lobbying groups able to influence public policy; 3.) their domination of academic culture, ultimately due to their influence in elite universities and trickling down to lower-tier universities and eventually the K-12 educational system.

Is this Jewish power structure still in place? Yes, but there appear to be important changes indicating that Jewish power is not what it once was. Moreover, it’s hard to believe that the organized Jewish community is able to retain its position as paragons of tolerance and virtue in view of Israeli actions in Gaza and the support these actions have received by the American Jewish community.

MEDIA

When I was growing up in the 1950s, there were three television networks, all owned by Jews (ABC, CBS, NBC). These networks are still owned by Jews. The New York Times, often labeled “America’s newspaper of record,” is still owned by a Jewish family and reflects of the mainstream liberal-left Jewish community. However, the influence of these exemplars of the legacy media has declined dramatically.

If the 2024 election shows anything, it’s that the legacy mainstream media is distrusted more than ever and has been effectively replaced among wide swaths of voters, especially young voters, by alternative media, particularly podcasts and social media. Joe Rogan, a former liberal (wasn’t everyone?) has become increasingly conservative and Tucker Carlson has pushed the boundaries of conservative thinking, such as his interview with Darryl Cooper questioning the sacrosanct World War II narrative,^[5] as well as his interview with Curt Mills that touches on neoconservatism—essentially a Jewish intellectual and political movement^[6]—and America’s disastrous wars in the Middle East.^[7] Another former liberal, Elon Musk, is gleefully taking a sledge hammer to the entrenched, overwhelmingly Democrat-leaning federal bureaucracy.

Just recently, Trump’s Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth evicted The New York Times, National Public Radio, NBC, and Politico from their Pentagon offices to make room for One America News Network, The New York Post, Breitbart News Network, and the Huffington Post (which did not ask for representation).^[8] All of the ones replaced are decidedly on the left and replacements are conservative except Huffington Post. None can be considered legacy media.

Thomas Edsall in the New York Times has noted that “While both Democrats and Republicans have abandoned newspapers in growing numbers, … the drop among Republicans accelerated much faster than it did for Democrats in 2016, the year Trump first ran for president.”^[9] Legacy newspapers are thus a key source of information for Democrats but not Republicans.

Conservative media is slavishly pro-Israel even as they typically oppose liberal-left domestic political policies favored by the mainstream Jewish community, such as:

1. promoting high levels of legal non-White immigration, enabling illegal immigration, and stopping deporting illegals because they see them as future voters for the liberal left and diluting the power of White Americans;^[10]
2. promoting so-called hate speech laws and other attempts to rein in free speech on racial/ethnic issues, including especially criticisms of Israel;
3. supporting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion programs and Critical Race Theory that discriminate against and foster hatred against Whites;^[11]
4. promoting transgenderism, gay rights, advocating easy access to abortion, etc.

Jews typically vote overwhelmingly Democrat and basically fund the Democratic Party. In the 2024 election they voted 71–79 percent for Harris, thus supporting the liberal-far left policies favored by the Harris campaign.^[12] Even though there was some shift to more conservative voting among groups of Jews, they are still on the left when it comes to domestic issues.

Jewish neoconservatives were a long-time fixture in the GOP but defected with the rise of Trump because of his professed distaste for foreign wars and likely because of Trump’s stated views on immigration and multiculturalism. Predictably, the neocons seamlessly defected to the Democrats where their liberal-left views on domestic policy fit right in. While in the GOP, they moved the party to the left on social issues while promoting pro-Israel wars in the Middle East,^[13] and they now the Ukraine war against Russia. Conservative media by and large support Trump,^[14] and are thus anathema to most Jews. [However, in Trump”s second term, the neocon mentality has returned with a vengeance, leading to the disastrous war on Iran that may turn out to be an turning point in Middle East history and the end of American dreams of world hegemony. Neocons are furious about Trump’s proposed Memorandum of Understanding on Iran.]

The point being that even though conservative media is obsessively pro-Israel, it opposes the attitudes and policies of the mainstream liberal-left Jewish community on domestic policy. The legacy media, a main power bases of the mainstream liberal-left Jewish community, appears to be in terminal decline.

The rise of alternative media is critical. Under Elon Musk, X is clearly open to conservative  views, and indeed, when I go on there (rarely), all I see are conservative and even anti-Jewish posts (e.g., by Nick Fuentes (@NickJFuentes) and Ye (Kanye West), although Ye recently removed his account. X has become a rightleaning media outlet that attracts young people and many others who reject the legacy media—during the run-up to the 2024 election it was great entertainment to see the replies to posts by the Harris campaign.

FUNDING THE LEFT

What about funding the left? Jewish financial clout is certainly still in place, but we are seeing the rise of a very wealthy class of non-Jewish multi-millionaires and billionaires, prototypically Elon Musk (who reportedly gave Trump’s campaign more than $290 million^[15]). Wealthy non-Jews are thus quite willing and able to finance a competitive campaign like Trump’s. As of August 14, 2024 according to Forbes, of 26 billionaire donors to Trump (not including Musk), 22 are not Jewish, while 4, including Bernard Marcus (who recently died) are Jewish, with only one in the top ten (pro-Israel fanatic Miriam Adelson—$100 million).^[16] Overall, Democrats and Democrat-affiliated groups spent $1.8 billion, while Republicans and Republican-affiliated groups spent about $1.4 billion.^[17] The Trump campaign certainly had enough money to run a credible campaign and even win despite the deluge of hate emanating from the legacy media.

Jewish money is thus not necessary to win, especially if the richest man in the world is on board. Assuming Musk gave $300 million, it’s far less than 1 percent of his wealth. Indeed, Musk could finance a presidential campaign all by himself—$2 billion would be more than even the Democrats and Democrat-affiliated groups spent on the 2024 presidential campaign, but Musk could easily afford that. As the Jews have known forever, money is power.

All this wealth supporting Trump 2.0 was apparent at Trump’s inauguration:

Here were America’s tech tycoons, members of his court, in a pantheon at his second Inaugural Address, directly across from the former presidents and in front of Trump’s presumptive cabinet. Many members of Congress, the actual elected government, were relegated to the cheaper seats.

The men who control Americans’ eyeballs and, often, emotions got the choicest seats; several have scarfed up big mansions in Washington to be closer to the Oval.

Elon Musk sat behind the vice president’s mother, pumping his arms and giving two thumbs-up when Trump said he’d put an American flag on Mars, where Musk wants to die (just not on impact).

Google’s Sundar Pichai was near Don Jr. and next to Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez, who were near Ivanka and Jared. Shou Zi Chew, the TikTok C.E.O., sat next to Tulsi Gabbard, Trump’s intended director of national intelligence. Tim Cook of Apple was close to Barron Trump. Sam Altman, the head of OpenAI, was also at the inaugural but—perhaps because of his legal duel with Elon—was in the overflow room with Ron DeSantis, Eric Adams and Conor McGregor.^[18]

Most of these tycoons are likely just trying to ingratiate themselves with the new administration, but this is a huge change from the 2017 inauguration and suggests that they are quite comfortable with the sea changes the Trump is pursuing.

ACADEMIA

And then there’s the university—definitely the hardest nut to crack because hiring is rigorously policed to make sure that new faculty and administrators are on the left. Academics who get out of line can expect a lifetime of harassment and hostility, and, if they don’t have tenure, they will certainly be fired even if their teaching and scholarship are excellent.

As in other areas, Jews ascended the heights of the academic world after World War II and especially during the 1960s.^[19][20] Once they achieved prominence and always eager as a small minority to make alliances with other groups, they promoted the expansion of departments essentially composed of activists of the left, such as gender studies and various ethnic studies departments for Blacks, Latinos, Asians, Jews, etc., thus expanding the liberal arts faculty and creating a critical mass of leftist activists. This structure is still in place.

Since the Israeli war in Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon and Syria, there have been a great many protests on campus, but Jewish power has put a rather quick end to that:

The policies ranged from banning the erection of tents on campus grounds to limiting the times and places where students are allowed to hold demonstrations. While free speech experts agree that some time, place and manner restrictions are acceptable, they have branded some policy changes unconstitutional.^[21]

At UCLA, pro-Israel thugs were allowed to run amok among protesters while the police stood by. Ron Unz:

Even worse scenes took place at UCLA as an encampment of peaceful protesters was violently attacked and beaten by a mob of pro-Israel thugs having no university connection but armed with bars, clubs, and fireworks, resulting in some serious injuries. A professor of History described her outrage as the nearby police stood aside and did nothing while UCLA students were attacked by outsiders, then arrested some 200 of the former.^[22]

Obviously, these restrictions are a far cry from university responses to the BLM riots. As Unz noted,

I’d think that most of these students were absolutely stunned at such reactions. For decades, they and their predecessors had freely protested on a wide range of political causes without ever encountering even a sliver of such vicious retaliation, let alone an organized campaign that quickly forced the resignation of two of the Ivy League presidents who had allowed their protests. Some of their student organizations were immediately banned and the future careers of the protesters were harshly threatened, but the horrifying images from Gaza continued to reach their smartphones. 

Jewish power in academia is alive and well.

The Trump administration is pushing back on the academic left but not against Jewish power in the universities, proposing to deport foreign students and professors involved in anti-Israel protests:

The new attorney general, Pam Bondi, created a task force to prosecute antisemitic acts, including on college campuses. The president’s order singles out last year’s university protests against Israel’s war in Gaza, which it says unleashed a barrage of discrimination against Jewish students. The order targets international students who participated in those protests with deportation.”^[23]

There is also a welcome campaign to end Diversity, Equity and Inclusion programs at universities. It’s long been apparent that the only way to rein in the radical left that dominates academia is to cut off their money. Although Department of Education ruling of February 17, 2025 fits with color-blind conservative ideology, it does mention discrimination against Whites (and Asians) and specifically targets Critical Race Theory which is nothing but anti-White hate. Thus far it has cancelled over $1.2 billion from university grants, noting that “Review of the contracts uncovered wasteful and ideologically driven spending not in the interest of students and taxpayers.”^[24]

Trump’s attitude on foreign student protesters will put a further chill into what has already been happening with anti-Israel protests. But fighting DEI at universities will be an uphill struggle against an academic establishment that has devoted huge amounts of money and hired thousands of bureaucrats to administer DEI programs.^[25] Moreover, universities will likely find ways to continue DEI programs even if they are legally prohibited, as they have with affirmative action admissions.^[26]

However, of the three main sources of Jewish power, academic influence is least important. Students will notice that DEI jobs are drying up and that spouting and living the old leftist political clichés is not a good route to social and career success. Women in particular are likely to shift political preferences when they see a shift in the status hierarchy, but men will also change their attitudes as they try to advance in the new hierarchy.

CONCLUSION

There is a real possibility of the rise of an essentially non-Jewish elite centered outside the traditional legacy media and with the financial resources able to mount successful political campaigns and fund compatible NGOs. Whether this could develop into an anti-Jewish elite is a completely different question—unlikely for the foreseeable future because of the deep personal ties and business relationships among elite Jews and non-Jews. Nevertheless, as noted, the domestic policies of the Trump administration for the most part depart dramatically from policies long favored by the mainstream liberal-left Jewish community.

Already we see numerous Jewish organizations protesting any end to DEI or the deportations of illegal immigrants.^[27],[28]

Although the present situation is in flux, it is quite possible that in the future the new elite described here could become far more than a possibility. This new elite may realize that Jewish support and Jewish power in American politics is not what it was and that there is no real need to support the policies favored by the mainstream Jewish community. Indeed, this may have already happened—with the important exception of pro-Israel attitudes that also appeal to some sections of the Republican base (e.g., knee-jerk support of Israel by mainstream conservatives and Evangelicals). Some parts of this new elite may be well aware of the role Jews have played in erecting the multicultural disaster that America has become—a position that was common on the American right for decades, at least from the time of Henry Ford until neoconservatives pushed out traditional conservatives during the Reagan administration and William Buckley purged the conservative movement of critics of Jewish influence.^[29],[30] And they may be well aware that the slavish support that America has  given Israel has been enormously costly in terms of lives and treasure without really serving American interests.

Musk is a good example:

Musk is increasingly off the reservation in his tweets: “The damage was done,” [holocaust activist] Deborah Lipstadt remarked about a Musk post on X.^[31] “The endorsement of the Great Replacement theory was very harmful.” Lipstadt added that she disapproved of what she saw as any attempt to “mitigate” Musk’s earlier tweet, without criticizing ADL head Jonathan Greenblatt directly. “You can try to mitigate, but once you open the pillow, it’s like chasing the feathers,” she said.

Musk was replying to a user who wrote, “Jewish communities have been pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them. I’m deeply disinterested in giving the tiniest s— now about western Jewish populations coming to the disturbing realization that those hordes of minorities [they] support flooding their country don’t exactly like them too much.”

Musk responded, “You have said the actual truth.”

Greenblatt joined a loud chorus in condemning that post. Other Jewish groups, including the American Jewish Committee, harshly condemned it. Later in the same thread, Musk went after the ADL itself, saying the group “push[es] de facto anti-white racism.” He apologized for a lot of this and made the mandatory visits to Auschwitz and Israel, but it’s hard to believe that he now rejects these ideas.^[32]

Notice that the idea of the Great Replacement is completely off limits for Jewish activists like Lipstadt. They see any claim that the Great Replacement is real as an anti-Jewish conspiracy theory no matter what the changing demographics indicate and even without any mention of Jews—and no matter what research shows was the very prominent Jewish role in promoting the 1965 immigration law and their consistently promoting non-European immigration throughout the West.^[33]

As always, I am an optimist. I think that a lot of the figures on the right are quite aware of the deleterious effects of Jewish power and influence on the formerly dominant White America. And as I noted, “it’s hard to believe that [Musk] now rejects these ideas.” He likely just knows better than to utter them in public.

And consider Vice-President J.D. Vance’s speech at a conference in Munich attended by powerful EU leaders and going against what has been a consensus among European elites:

And of all the pressing challenges that the nations represented here face, I believe there is nothing more urgent than mass migration. Today, almost one in five people living in this country [Germany] moved here from abroad. That is, of course, an all-time high. It’s a similar number, by the way, in the United States, also an all-time high. The number of immigrants who entered the EU from non-EU countries doubled between 2021 and 2022 alone. And of course, it’s gotten much higher since.

And we know the situation. It didn’t materialize in a vacuum. It’s the result of a series of conscious decisions made by politicians all over the continent, and others across the world, over the span of a decade. We saw the horrors wrought by these decisions yesterday in this very city [when an Afghan migrant rammed a car into a crowd, killing a woman and child]. And of course, I can’t bring it up again without thinking about the terrible victims who had a beautiful winter day in Munich ruined. Our thoughts and prayers are with them and will remain with them. But why did this happen in the first place?

It’s a terrible story, but it’s one we’ve heard way too many times in Europe, and unfortunately too many times in the United States as well. An asylum seeker, often a young man in his mid20s, already known to police, rams a car into a crowd and shatters a community. Unity. How many times must we suffer these appalling setbacks before we change course and take our shared civilization in a new direction? No voter on this continent went to the ballot box to open the floodgates to millions of unvetted immigrants. But you know what they did vote for? In England, they voted for Brexit. And agree or disagree, they voted for it. And more and more all over Europe, they are voting for political leaders who promise to put an end to out-of-control migration. Now, I happen to agree with a lot of these concerns, but you don’t have to agree with me.

I just think that people care about their homes, they care about their dreams, they care about their safety and their capacity to provide for themselves and their children.

And they’re smart. I think this is one of the most important things I’ve learned in my brief time in politics. Contrary to what you might hear a couple of mountains over in Davos, the citizens of all of our nations don’t generally think of themselves as educated animals or as interchangeable cogs of a global economy. And it’s hardly surprising that they don’t want to be shuffled about or relentlessly ignored by their leaders. And it is the business of democracy to adjudicate these big questions at the ballot box.

I believe that dismissing people, dismissing their concerns or worse yet, shutting down media, shutting down elections or shutting people out of the political process protects nothing. In fact, it is the most surefire way to destroy democracy. Speaking up and expressing opinions isn’t election interference. Even when people express views outside your own country, and even when those people are very influential. And trust me, I say this with all humor—if American democracy can survive ten years of Greta Thunberg’s scolding you guys can survive a few months of Elon Musk.

But what no democracy—American, German or European—will survive, is telling millions of voters that their thoughts and concerns, their aspirations, their pleas for relief, are invalid or unworthy of even being considered.^[34]

It’s great to see such ideas being articulated at the apex of political power in America.

We can take our country back.
